Hi rupe, Very thanks for your answer!

At the moment I'm just interested in vintage Exotica (50s-60s), all the artists I like are american.

Discogs is where I'm looking from some times but I noticed that the good pressings in good conditions (VG+) are from US.

About pressings, I search only for Stereo since I read and think they're better. What do you think?

Yeah, already saw the Jackpot Records reissues! ;) Already tried from their website but the shipping cost is huge! It increases as you add records...

In general (same on Discogs) shipping cost from US is very high, beyond my possibilities.

Thrift or secondhand stores is the next step. Anyway here in EU these type of stores are way less popular than in US where I know they're very popular (I follow Tuco @VinylHunter on YT :) ). In any case I'll try but I probably will find just old european music that it's not good as the american one.

Trading with someone in the USA would be good but there's always the shipping cost problem...

Unfortunately it's hard for us in EU! :(

I'll let you know. Thanks!
